ST. THERESA 23RD ANNUAL FEAST - June 19-23, 2019

We are preparing for our parish’s main social event of the year—
St. Theresa’s Italian American Family Feast. We look forward to our 23
rd annual Feast.

We will hold the Feast this year from Wednesday, June 19
th through Sunday, June 23
rd right after school closes, to encourage families to attend. The Feast has a definite
“familyfocus.” We want to emphasize that it is our families that make
“St. Theresa Strong.”

As our church bulletin proclaims on its cover each week:
“St. Theresa’s Family Is Our Family.

The Feast once again will feature the “Kiddie Zone” in the gym, as well as the traditional rides and booths.
We will start at 5PM and will end each night at 9:30 PM with longer hours on Saturday and Sunday (2PM to 9:30PM). We will also emphasize that this is an
Italian-American Feast with Italian food and pastries. We will expand the
Casino this year on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. And as usual, we will have our
Grand Raffle, our
Mass each evening, the
Procession of the statue of St. Theresa on Sunday, and the
concert in church.

I am writing to you at this time to request your help with our Grand Raffle. Once again this year the Raffle will feature money prizes;

First Prize: $25,000Second Prize $ 5,000Third Prize $ 1,000

We ask your special help with the Raffle this year. We depend on the Raffle to be the mainstay of our Feast operation. We are hoping for a considerable profit from the Raffle to assist our church and school. The number of Raffle tickets sold in the past few years has declined. We hope to change that this year. You will be able to purchase a Raffle Ticket on line through our website or you can come directly to the rectory and purchase one yourself. You may also wish to join someone else in buying the ticket. (Three years ago, the top prize was won by five school families who chipped in to buy the ticket together.) The price of the ticket is $100, but we feel the prizes are worth it. Additional tickets are available at the rectory.

Also, please note that if your Raffle tickets are in before June 9
th you will qualify for the
“early bird drawing,” the winner of which will receive $300 and three additional tickets. Also, as a way of expressing our gratitude to all who buy or sell raffle tickets, we will award $100 in cash to the seller of the First Prize ticket. The early bird drawing will be on Sunday, June 9
th after the 10:30 AM Mass.

You may return your ticket stub and payment either by coming to the rectory, bringing it to one of the volunteers at Sunday Mass or mailing it to the rectory.

Please help us make the Raffle and the Feast successful this year. I am confident you will help keep
“St. Theresa Strong.”
